Renowned journalist and TV host Iqrar ul Hassan has officially hinted at launching his own political party, a step that’s sparking conversations across Pakistan’s media and political circles. During a recent interview and his appearance on various platforms, Iqrar revealed that his goal is to create a people-centric political movement that prioritizes merit, accountability, and inclusivity.
Iqrar Ul Hassan Political Party Vision
According to Iqrar, Pakistan’s politics has long been dominated by family-run systems and personality-based parties. He believes the time has come for educated individuals, journalists, and professionals to take charge of national progress.
“We need a political movement that represents teachers, journalists, and ordinary citizens, not just the influential few,” he said during his discussion.
Key Highlights Of Iqrar’s Political Plan
- Focus on Meritocracy: Iqrar mentioned that his political framework would select candidates through a fair process instead of traditional recommendations.
- No Personal Ambition: He clarified that he isn’t aiming for a personal political seat but wants to provide a transparent platform for others.
- Educated Representation: His proposed party will welcome professionals from the media, education, and civil sectors.
Interestingly, this political revelation follows weeks of Iqrar’s name trending online for multiple reasons, including his viral statements, humanitarian work, and even discussions around his personal life. Recently, fans speculated about whether Iqrar ul Hassan pointed at a possible fourth marriage, a topic he subtly addressed in a public appearance.
Since his announcement, several users have drawn comparisons between Iqrar and MQM’s founder, Altaf Hussain. However, Iqrar was quick to clarify that while he admires the idea of community representation, his political party will promote transparency and democratic values, unlike older models.
Whether this move succeeds or not, one thing is certain: Iqrar ul Hassan’s entry into politics marks a turning point for journalists aiming to reshape Pakistan’s political conversation.
